One of the people I mentioned was literally protesting the genocide dumb ass. See this is the thing Australians have no clue who any famous or legendary aboriginal people are.

A M Fernando was literally say "these skeletons are all that you've left of my people"... And you think learning about that is "forgetting it's a day of death and suffering".

Shiiit.

Ok yeah that's really good to remember. But can you tell me why it's important to remember this on the 26th and not a more inclusive day?

The date doesn't matter.
